ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of newly-treated patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).Methods:Clinical data of 117 newly-treated PCNSL patients who were admitted to the First Hospital of Jilin University, the Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital, Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital, and Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College from August 2009 to February 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients' age, sex, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) physical status (PS) score, pathological type, involvement of deep brain tissue, number of lesions, cerebrospinal fluid protein concentration, International Extranodal Lymphoma Study Group (IELSG) score, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) score, treatment strategy, and response after the first-line therapy were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models to identify the independent influencing factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of PCNSL patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis.Results:In 117 newly-treated PCNSL patients, 59 cases (50.4%) presented with increased intracranial pressure or focal neurological symptoms at diagnosis; there were 65 cases (55.6%) with single lesions and 52 cases (44.4%) with multiple lesions; 1 patient (0.9%) had lymphoma of T-cell origin, and 116 cases (99.1%) had diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Among 95 evaluable patients, 41 patients (43.2%) achieved complete remission (CR), 20 patients (21.1%) achieved partial remission (PR), 16 patients (16.8%) achieved stable disease (SD), and 18 patients (18.9%) had progressive disease (PD). In 117 patients with median follow-up of 66.0 months (95% CI 57.9-74.1 months), the median PFS and OS were 17.4 months (95% CI 11.5-23.3 months) and 45.6 months (95% CI 20.1-71.1 months), respectively. The 2-, 3- and 5-year PFS rates were 41.2%, 28.6% and 19.3%, and OS rates were 63.7%, 52.4% and 46.3%, respectively. Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that baseline high-risk MSKCC score group was an adverse prognostic factor for PFS ( P = 0.037), and the first-line chemotherapy with ≥4 cycles of high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX), HDMTX in combination with rituximab, ≥4 cycles of rituximab in combination with HDMTX, and achieving CR or ≥PR after the first-line treatment reduced the risk of disease progression and prolonged the PFS time (all P <0.01); age >60 years old, ECOG-PS score of 2-4 points, elevated cerebrospinal fluid protein concentration, high-risk IELSG score, and high-risk MSKCC score were adverse prognostic factors for OS, and ≥4 cycles of HDMTX and achieving CR or ≥PR after the first-line treatment were favorable factors for OS. Multivariate Cox regression analysis verified that rituximab in combination with HDMTX (yes vs. no: HR = 0.349, 95% CI 0.133-0.912, P = 0.032) and achieving ≥PR after the first-line chemotherapy (yes vs. no: HR = 0.028, 95% CI 0.004-0.195, P < 0.001) were independent favorable factors for PFS; age >60 years old (>60 years old vs. ≤60 years old: HR = 10.878, 95% CI 1.807-65.488, P = 0.009) was independent unfavorable factor for OS, while ≥4 cycles of HDMTX treatment (≥4 cycles vs. <4 cycles: HR = 0.225, 95% CI 0.053-0.947, P = 0.042) was independent favorable factor for OS. Conclusions:The older the PCNSL patients at initial treatment, the worse the prognosis. Intensive and continuous treatment for achieving deeper remission may be the key for improving the outcome of PCNSL patients.
ABSTRACT
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare lymphoma type. The prognosis of PCNSL patients after treated by traditional therapy regimen is very poor. The way to evaluate the prognosis of PCNSL and to increase therapeutic efficacy have become the clinical problem. The 64th American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting reported the latest research progress of diagnosis and treatment of PCNSL, including image examination, genetic sequencing, targeted therapy, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). This paper reviews the latest progress of PCNSL in the 64th ASH annual meeting.
ABSTRACT
Large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) is the most common lymphoma subtype in China. Although the application of immuno-chemotherapy has significantly improved the cure rate, 40%-50% of patients will still experience refractory or relapse. Conventional salvage chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (AHCT) can cure about 40% of chemotherapy-sensitive relapsed/refractory LBCL patients, but about 50% of relapsed/refractory LBCL patients cannot undergo AHCT because of resistance to salvage immunotherapy. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy has attracted much attention, and two CD19 CAR-T products have been approved in China for the treatment of relapsed/refractory LBCL. At the 63rd American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting, several international phase 3 trials reported the latest progress of CAR-T and AHCT in the treatment of relapsed/refractory LBCL.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the efficacy and prognostic factors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for the treatment of patients with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) .@*Methods@#The clinical records of 33 ALCL patients after HSCT were collected and analyzed retrospectively to evaluate the rates of overall survival (OS) and recurrence after autologous (auto-HSCT) and allogeneic HSCT (allo-HSCT) and the factors influencing prognosis.@*Results@#The median-age of this cohort of 33 ALCL cases at diagnosis was 31 (12-57) years old with a male/female ratio of 23/10, 24 cases (72.7%) were ALK+ and 9 ones (27.3%) ALK-. Of them, 25 patients (19 ALK+ and 6 ALK-) underwent auto-HSCT and 8 cases (5 ALK+ and 3ALK-) allo-HSCT with a median follow-up of 18.7 (4.0-150.0) months. Disease states before HSCT were as follows: only 6 patients achieved CR status and received auto-HSCT, 16 patients achieved PR (14 cases by auto-HSCT and 2 ones allo-HSCT) , the rest 11 cases were refractory/relapse (5 cases by auto-HSCT and 6 ones allo-HSCT) . There were 7 cases died of disease progression (5 after auto-HSCT and 2 allo-HSCT) and 5 cases treatment-related mortality (TRM) (2 after auto-HSCT and 3 allo-HSCT) , TRM of two groups were 8.0% and 37.5%, respectively. Both the median progression-free survival (PFS) and OS were 15 months after auto-HSCT, the median PFS and OS after allo-HSCT were 3.7 (1.0-90.0) and 4.6 (1.0-90.0) months, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in terms of survival curves between the two groups (OS and PFS, P=0.247 and P=0.317) . The 2-year OS rates in auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT groups were 72% and 50%, respectively. The 5-year OS rates in auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT groups were 36% and 25%, respectively.@*Conclusion@#ALCL treated by chemotherapy produced high rates of overall and complete responses. Chemotherapy followed by auto-HSCT remained to be good choice for patients with poor prognostic factors. High-risk patients should be considered more beneficial from allo-HSCT.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the frequency and composition of risk-related cytogenetic abnormalities (CAs) in patients with newly-diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) .@*Methods@#The frequency and composition of risk-related CAs from a cohort of 1 015 Chinese patients with NDMM were determined by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (iFISH) , individually or in combination.@*Results@#Of the cohort of 1 015 Chinese patients with NDMM, the frequencies of IgH arrangement, del (13q) /13q14, 1q gain and del (17p) were 54.0%, 46.4%, 46.1% (35.8% and 12. 7% for 3 or more than 3 copies) and 9.9%, respectively. Among 454 patients who had the baseline information for all risk-related CAs [except t (14;20) , which was not covered by the FISH panels performed routinely at all five centers], the frequencies of t (4;14) , t (11;14) or t (14;20) were 14.1%, 11.2% and 4.8%, respectively; of them, 44.3% patients carried 2 or more CAs (28.0%, 13.4% and 2.9% for 2, 3 or ≥4 CAs) ; 83.3%, 95.0% or 68.6% patients with 1q gain, del (17p) or IgH rearrangement had 1 or more additional CA (s) , with del (13q) /13q14 as the most frequently accompanied CA; 57.7% patients carried at least 1 HRCA; the incidences of double-hit (DH) MM (DHMM) (=2 HRCAs) and triple-hit (TH) (THMM) (≥3 HRCAs) were 14.3% and 2.9%, respectively.@*Conclusions@#Our results provided an up-to-date profile of CAs in Chinese NDMM patients, which revealed that approximately 58% patients might carry at least 1 HRCA, and 17% could experience so-called DHMM or THMM who presumably had the worst outcome.
ABSTRACT
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a common hematological malignancy with renal impairment in approximately 50% of patients. Sever renal impairment occurs in 15%-20% of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients. 200 mg/m2 melphalan-based regimen (Mel 200 regimen) as conditioning regimen of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHCT) is suitable for multiple myeloma patients with mild or moderate renal impairment, and 400 mg/m2 melphalan-based regimen (Mel 140 regimen) is fit for multiple myeloma patients with severe renal impairment. As the first line therapy for multiple myeloma patients with renal impairment, AHCT can increase response depth, repair renal function and improve survival. AHCT is a safe and beneficial procedure for MM patients with renal failure.

ABSTRACT
Objective@#To evaluate clinical outcomes of autologous (auto-HSCT) and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) .@*Methods@#From June 2007 to June 2017, clinical data of AITL patients who underwent HSCT in eight hospitals were assessed retrospectively.@*Results@#Of 19 patients, 13 male and 6 female with a median age of 50 (32-60) years old, 12 auto-HSCT and 7 allo-HSCT recipients were enrolled in this study, all donors were HLA-identical siblings. Two of allo-HSCT recipients were relapsed auto-HSCT ones. There were 5 patients (5/12) in complete response (CR) status and 7 (7/12) in partial remission (PR) status before transplantation in auto-HSCT group, and 2 (2/7) in PR status and 3 (3/7) in progression disease (PD) status before transplantation in allo-HSCT group. The median follow-up for the surviving patients was 46.5 months (range, 1-100 months) for the whole series, two patients lost in auto-HSCT group. Three patients developed acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and 5 chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after allo-HSCT. Three patients died of primary disease and 1bleeding in auto-HSCT group. One patient died of primary disease and 2 transplantation-related mortality in allo-HSCT group. The 3-year cumulative overall survival (OS) were 56% (95%CI 32%-100%) and 57% (95%CI 30%-100%) for auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT, respectively (P=0.979) . The 3-year cumulative progression-free survival (PFS) were 34% (95%CI 14%-85%) and 57% (95%CI 30%-100%) for auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT, respectively (P=0.451) .@*Conclusion@#Both auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT were optimal choices for AITL. In clinical practice, which HSCT was better for AITL patients should be based on comprehensive factors including sensitivity to chemotherapy, risk stratification and disease status at transplantation.

ABSTRACT
Objective@#To evaluate the impact of KIT D816 mutation on the salvage therapy in relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with t(8;21) translocation. @*Method@#The characteristics of the first relapsed AML with t(8;21) translocation from 10 hospitals were retrospectively collected, complete remission (CR2) rate after one course salvage chemotherapy and the relationship between KIT mutation and CR2 rate was analyzed. @*Results@#68 cases were enrolled in this study, and 30 cases (44.1%) achieved CR2. All patients received KIT mutation detection, and KIT D816 mutation was identified in 26 cases. The KIT D816 positive group had significantly lower CR2 compared with non-KIT D816 group (23.1% vs 57.1%, χ2=7.559, P=0.006), and patients with longer CR1 duration achieved significantly higher CR2 than those with CR1 duration less than 12 months (74.1% vs 31.9%, χ2=9.192, P=0.002). KIT D816 mutation was tightly related to shorter CR1 duration. No significant difference of 2 years post relapse survival was observed between KIT D816 mutation and non-KIT D816 mutation group. @*Conclusion@#KIT D816 mutation at diagnosis was an adverse factor on the salvage therapy in relapsed AML with t(8;21) translocation, significantly related to shorter CR1 duration, and can be used for prediction of salvage therapy response. KIT D816 mutation could guide the decision-making of salvage therapy in relapsed AML with t(8;21) translocation.
ABSTRACT
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a kind of heterogeneous neoplasms mostly with strong invasiveness, a tendency of recurrence and drug resistance and poor prognosis. Five year disease-free-survival (DFS) rate of PTCL is less than 30% under the treatment setting of chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has a role of a graft-versus-lymphoma effect in the treatment of PTCL, meanwhile, long DFS rate of allo-HSCT for the treatment of relapsed and refractory PTCL reaches 35%-50%. Therefore, allo-HSCT is an effective treatment method for PTCL patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To evaluate clinical outcomes of autologous and allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) for aggressive peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).@*Methods@#From June 2007 to June 2017, clinical data of PTCL patients who underwent PBSCT were assessed retrospectively.@*Results@#Among 41 patients, 30 was male, 11 female, and median age was 38(13-57) years old. Seventeen patients with autologous PBSCT (auto-PBSCT) and 24 patients with allogeneic PBSCT (allo-PBSCT) were enrolled in this study. Eight patients (8/17, 47.1%) in auto-PBSCT group were ALK positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), 7 patients (7/24, 29.2%) with NK/T cell lymphoma and 9 patients (9/24, 37.5%) with PTCL-unspecified (PTCL-U) in allo-PBSCT group (P=0.035). There were 58.8% patients (10/17) in complete response (CR) status and 11.8% (2/17) in progression disease (PD) status before transplantation in auto-PBSCT group, and 8.3% (2/24) in CR status and 45.8% (11/24) in PD status before transplantation in allo-PBSCT group (P=0.026). The 2-years cumulative overall survival (OS) were (64.0±10.8)% and (53.5±9.7)% for auto-PBSCT and allo-PBSCT respectively (P=0.543). The 2-years cumulative disease-free survival (DFS) were (57.1±12.4)% and (53.5±10.6)% for auto-PBSCT and allo-PBSCT respectively (P=0.701). In patients with dead outcomes after PBSCT, 83.3% (5/6) of death cause was relapse in auto-PBSCT and 41.7% (5/12) of death cause was relapse in allo-PBSCT.@*Conclusion@#Both auto-PBSCT and allo-PBSCT were effective for PTCL. Allo-PBSCT maybe was better than auto-PBSCT for high-risk PTCL with poor prognosis.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the influence of relapse and survival by chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after allogeneic hematopoietics stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Fifty-five AML patients received allo-HSCT were retrospectively reviewed. Relapse rate and overall survival (OS) were analyzed according to cGVHD.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>cGVHD significantly decreased the relapse rate of AML patients after transplantation within 2 years when compared with those without cGVHD (8.7% vs 38.6%, P=0.019), however, cGVHD had no effect on the long-term relapse rate (22.8% vs 5.9%, P=0.217). cGVHD had no effect on OS within 2 years (78.3% vs 61.0%, P=0.155) but could decrease the rate of long-term survival (63.7% vs 100%,P=0.01). cGVHD also could reduce the rate of relapse (8.3% vs 46.2%, P=0.044) and enhanced the rate of survival (83.3% vs 47.2%, P=0.045) in patients with high risk AML after allo-HSCT in 2 years, while it had no effect on the relapse rate and OS in patients with low and intermediated risk AML in early and late phase. Moreover, compared with the rate of relapse(38.6%) in patients without cGVHD, the rate of relapse were lower in patients with limited cGVHD and intensive cGVHD (27.3% and 31.3%, respectively) but the long-term survival was significantly lower (53.3%, P=0.001) in those patients with intensive cGVHD after all-HSCT.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The benefit effect of cGVHD mainly took place within 2 years after allo-HSCT in AML patients especially in those with high risk, while in late phase after allo-HSCT, cGVHD especially intensive cGVHD had an effect on reducing long-term survival.</p>

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation from unrelated donors (UR-PBSCT) is an alternative treatment for many hematologic diseases due to lack of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical sibling donors. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the degree of the HLA match on the clinical efficacy of UR-PBSCT.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Patients who underwent UR-PBSCT from September 2003 to September 2012 were retrospectively investigated. They were divided into three groups according to high-resolution molecular typing. SPSS version 17.0 was used to analysis and compare the statistics of engraftment, incidence of GVHD, other complications and survival among the groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>One hundred and eleven patients received UR-PBSCT, 60 of them with an HLA matched donor (10/10), 36 of them with a one locus mismatched donor (9/10), and 15 of them with a two loci mismatched donor (8/10). Similar basic characteristics were found in the three groups. No differences were found in engraftment of myeloid cells or platelets in the three groups (P > 0.05). Two-year cumulative incidence of relapse, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) among those three groups were similar (P > 0.05). The cumulative incidence of 100-day III-IV aGVHD in the HLA matched group and the one HLA locus mismatched group were significantly lower than that in the two HLA loci mismatched group (3.3%, 8.6%, and 26.7%, P = 0.009). The occurrence rate of new pulmonary infections in the HLA matched group was lower than in the two HLA mismatched groups (26.67%, 52.78%, and 41.18%, P = 0.035). The cumulative incidence of 100-day and 2-year transplantation related mortality (TRM) in two HLA loci mismatched group was higher than in the HLA matched group and in the one HLA locus mismatched group, (8.4%, 11.8% and 33.3%, P = 0.016) and (12.3%, 18.7% and 47.5%, P = 0.002).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>HLA mismatch will not significantly impact the engraftment or 2-year survival after UR-PBSCT, but two mismatched HLA loci may increase the cumulative incidence of severe aGVHD and TRM.</p>

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of micafungin in the treatment of invasive fungal infections (IFI) in patients with acute leukemia.Methods A total of 133 IFI patients with acute leukemia received micafungin 150 mg once daily for 14 days.The clinical and mycological efficacies were evaluated on (7±2) days and(14±2) days of treatment.Meanwhile,the adverse events were recorded.The normally distributed data was compared using analysis of variance and nonnormal distributed data was analyzed using Wilcoxon rank-sum test.Results Among 133 IFI patients with acute leukemia,116 finished the 14-day micafungin treatment.The total clinical efficacy was 94.8% and the total mycological efficacy was 75.0% at (14±2) days of treatment.The fungus eliminate rates were 82.9%,66.7% and 55.6% against Monilia,Aspergillus and others,respectively.The clinical and mycological efficacies of (14±2)-day treatment were both higher than those of (7±2)-day treatment(X2=6.060,34.416.both P<0.05).The clinical efficacy was not related with age,sex,IFI diagnose,types of leukemia and combinative drugs (X2=26.541,P<0.05).The incidence of drug-related adverse events of micafungin was 3%among 133 patients,which included skin rash in 3 eases, diarrhea in 1 case. Only one case was discontinued because of severe skin rash and micafungin was well tolerant in other patients. Conclusion Treatment of micafungin 150 mg daily for 14 days is effective and safe in IFI patients with acute leukemia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the efficacy and adverse effects of bortezomib+adriamycin+dexamethasone (PAD) and vincristine + adriamycin + dexamethasone (VAD) regimens in untreated multiple myeloma (MM). Methods There were 26 and 28 new diagnosed MM patients in PAD and VAD groups. Both clinical effects and adverse effects were observed. Patients accepted VAD or PAD regimens for 2-4 cycles and followed up for 7-27 months. Results There were 10, 5 and 11 patients accepted 2, 3 and 4 cycles in PAD group, and 6, 11 and 11 in VAD group. In PAD group, there were 2, 14, 9, 1 and 0patients achieved complete remission (CR), very good partial remission (VGPR), partial remission (PR),stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD); in VAD group, the number were 0, 4, 12, 10 and 2.The rate of patients who achieved good efficacy (CR+VGPR) in PAD group was 61.5%, which was higher than that in VAD group (14.3%).The incidences of infection and gastrointestinal symptoms were similar in the two groups, while the incidences of peripheral neuropathy, thrombosis and Herpes Zoster infection in PAD group were higher than those in VAD group. Conclusions Compared with the conventional VAD chemotherapy, PAD may improve CR and VGPR rates in new diagnosed MM, while it may bring more and severer toxicities in peripheral neuropathy, thrombosis and Herpes Zoster infection. Preventive medical care is necessary in PAD protocol.
ABSTRACT
Objective To retrospectively analyze the diagnosis and treatment of multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD) ,and review related literatures. Methods A total of six patients were first-ever diagnosed as MCD and treated with combination chemotherapy and/or interferon α. The clinical manifestation, laboratory findings and therapeutic strategies were recorded in detail. Results In the six HIV-negative patients, histologically, four of them were diagnosed with plasma cell type of Castleman's disease, two with mixed type. All the six patients showed multiple lymphadenopathy, polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia and hypoalbuminemia. One of the two patients treated with interferon α achieved complete remission, and the other,who showed no effects with hormone and combination chemotherapy ,achieved sustained partial remission after treatment with interferon α for 3 months. Of the four patients treated with combination chemotherapy, three achieved partial remission, and one died of no effects. Conclusions Interferon α and combination chemotherapy might be the most effective and convenient therapeutic methods for MCD. Serum albumin level may be used as a diagnostic and monitoring index for MCD.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate injecting recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor(rhG-CSF) on the proportion of peripheral neutrophilic granulocyte and their surface molecules expression in healthy people.Methods The peripheral blood samples were collected from the healthy people who were injected with rhG-CSF.The expressions of CD62L,CD11a,CD44 and CD49d on the surface neutrophilic granulocytes were determined before and after injection with flow cytometery.Results The median percentage of neutrophilic granulocytes in peripheral blood leucocytes after injecting rhG-CSF significantly increased from 60% to 85%(P0.10).Conclusion Injecting rhG-CSF may obviously impact the expression of CD62L and CD49d on neutrophilic granulocytes.
